Welp, it’s that time of year again. Time to deck the halls and get drunk with your awkward Aunt Milly at Christmas Eve dinner. If you’re stressing about gifts for the special wino in your life, I’ve got JUST the gift guide for you! Behold, some of my favorite things—and this year I watched the price tags!

1. Pittsburgh, PA artist, Kirsten Lowe-Rebel has started a line of boozy prints, KloRebel. Handrawn with a look that will match a good bottle of hand-crafted whiskey, this art is framable and wearable! Available in ornaments, money clips, bracelets, prints, and more.

2. Who doesn’t love Uber? With as little as a few taps on your smartphone, you’ve got a safe ride home after one three too many cocktails. Give the gift of a DD that is always on call with an Uber gift card. Easily sent immediately via their website, it’s a good last-minute option (not that you’d forget a gift or anything).

4. W(h)et their whiskers (and whistles) with TX Whiskey! One of my absolute favorite liquors, this Fort Worth-made intoxicant has a vanilla finish and is so smooth that it’d be a sin to drink it any way but neat (I suppose that “on the rocks” is OK, too.)

The bottle looks great on your bar, and each cork is different as they are made from recycled cowboy boots … and it comes with this teeny tiny Santa hat.

Purchase TX Whiskey at most liquor stores in North Texas and other TX-branded items at frdistilling.com | $35 for the 750ml

5. Moscow Mules are still a thing (for me at least). Drink them in style with these copper mugs, because a Moscow Mule in any other cup is just ginger beer and vodka.

6. Did you know that some famous vineyards limit their output to make the bottles they sell more valuable, and sell excess to other labels? Enter: 90+ Cellars. Not only an incredible line of wines, but their options are very reasonable price-wise.

10. You bring a bottle of wine as a hostess gift: you’re a gracious guest. You bring a bottle of wine as a hostess gift with one of these badass gift tags on it: you’re a gracious guest … who is also f$@king awesome . Local paper goddess, Chelsea Cox Carpenter of Southern Fried Paper, sells these preciously-vulgar wine tags from her Design District studio (along with a lot of other fantastic paper goods).
